Several risk factors related to pancreatic cancer have been previously explored, including genetics [3], somatostatin receptor 5 gene polymorphisms [4], alcohol intake [5], cigarette smoking [6], diabetes mellitus [7], obesity [8], metabolic syndrome (MetS) [9], [10], [11], [12], chronic pancreatitis [13], first-degree relatives with pancreatic cancer [14], exposure to poultry oncogenic viruses [15], and Helicobacter pylori infection [16]. Here, SSTR5 is linked to familial pancreatic carcinoma.
